I suspect the 'nice guy' persona was just another construct that got McCain what he wanted. Was he a nice guy when he dumped wife 1? What about the Keating 5 stuff?

A person doesnt completely change from 'nice guy' to 'lying sleaze-bag' within a few years. He was just very clever in fooling a lot of people while assuming a role to get himself noticed. Appearing to be a 'maverick' and going against the Washington fat cats was just something that suited his purposes at the time.

What we are seeing now is the real John McCain, and sadly he is still fooling a lot of people.
